New Stargate Show Raises Questions for Sci-fi Universe

The internet is all abuzz with excitement over Amazon’s decision to revive the beloved “Stargate” franchise. Fans were pleasantly surprised when Amazon announced in November that a new series was in the works. Martin Gero, a familiar face in the “Stargate” universe, is spearheading the project, with other key figures like Joseph Mallozzi and Brad Wright also onboard.

Gero, known for his work on “Stargate: Atlantis,” shared in an interview that discussions started as early as late 2023, with Amazon sealing the deal by June 2024. Despite a period of silence after Amazon acquired MGM in 2022, the enthusiasm for “Stargate” behind the scenes never waned. Writing for the new series is set to kick off in early 2026, aiming for a potential debut in late 2027 or 2028.

The team wanted to keep fans in the loop and prevent any leaks, which is why the announcement was made early. Gero emphasized that creating a show of this scale involves hundreds of people, so they wanted fans to hear the news directly from them.

Exciting times lie ahead for “Stargate” enthusiasts as the new series takes shape. Stay tuned for more updates as the project progresses.
